Answer to Question 1

A
In 1925 Mary Breckinridge introduced a system for delivering health care to rural America. She created a decentralized system for primary nursing care services, which was called the Frontier Nursing Service.

Answer to Question 2

B
Neutrophils are the most numerous granulocytes and are especially reactive to bacteria. The number of circulating neutrophils will increase during bacterial infections. They are rarely found in healthy tissue. They appear in the blood in large numbers.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.
